Emerging threat detection is the process of identifying and responding to newly discovered vulnerabilities and security threats as they appear. Instead of waiting for scheduled scans, emerging threat detection continuously monitors threat intelligence sources and automatically checks your systems for newly discovered vulnerabilities within hours of their disclosure.

Vullify monitors threat intelligence sources 24/7 and automatically scans your systems for newly discovered vulnerabilities within hours of their disclosure. When a new critical vulnerability is announced (like a zero-day or CVE added to CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list), Vullify immediately checks if you're affected, so you can respond quickly before attackers can exploit the vulnerability.

Vullify monitors multiple threat intelligence sources including CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list, EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System), security advisories from vendors, vulnerability databases, and our own security research. This comprehensive monitoring ensures you're alerted to new threats from all major sources as soon as they're discovered.

Scheduled scanning runs vulnerability scans at predetermined intervals (daily, weekly, monthly), which means you might wait days or weeks before discovering new vulnerabilities. Emerging threat detection actively monitors threat intelligence and automatically scans your systems immediately when new threats are discovered, ensuring you know about critical vulnerabilities within hours rather than waiting for the next scheduled scan.

Yes, Vullify's emerging threat detection works across all vulnerability types—from zero-day exploits and newly discovered CVEs to security misconfigurations and exposed services. When any new threat relevant to your infrastructure is discovered, Vullify automatically checks your systems to determine if you're affected, regardless of the vulnerability category.

When Vullify detects that you're affected by a newly discovered threat, you're immediately notified through your configured alert channels (email, Slack, Jira, etc.). Each alert includes detailed information about the vulnerability, its severity, whether active exploits exist, and step-by-step remediation guidance. You can also configure automated workflows to prioritize and assign these findings to your team.

Yes, Vullify allows you to customize your emerging threat detection preferences. You can configure which threat sources to monitor, set severity thresholds for alerts, specify which assets or environments to prioritize, and define notification preferences. This ensures you receive alerts for the threats that matter most to your organization while reducing noise.

When a zero-day vulnerability is discovered, every minute counts before attackers can exploit it. Vullify's emerging threat detection monitors for zero-day disclosures and immediately scans your systems to check if you're vulnerable. This rapid response gives you a head start on patching or implementing mitigations before attackers can weaponize the vulnerability against your organization.

Emerging threat detection is a core feature of Vullify's exposure management platform. The specific capabilities and response times may vary by plan, but all Vullify customers benefit from continuous threat monitoring and automated scanning for newly discovered vulnerabilities.
